1:40 am
lost in sandoval's madness was barry zito's. and the game change when angel pagan's ground ball bounces off the third base bag with two outs. it extended the inning and allowed sandoval to get another shot. verlander, victimized again, this time in the opposite field, to make it 4-0. sandoval wasn't done. in the fifth inning... it was the second three home run game in the history of this ballpark. check it out. pablo using a different bat for that third home run. >> your third at-bat, you broke your bat. was that the same one you used for the first two home runs? >> yeah, man. i used it all my postseason. so i don't get too many superstitions about it. it's very good. it's another bat. if you have to, you have to
1:41 am
believe in yourself. >> everybody is in a good mood there. one other hero, tim lincecum, two and a third scoreless innings. he had five strikeouts. we'll take you inside the giants' clubhouse. >> pablo, babe ruth. too much for me. dennis o'donnell at at&t, thank you. a strong start to the giants' bid for another world series trophy, and the fans couldn't be happier. cbs 5 reporter linda yee is at the park. >> reporter: dana, several hours after this game ended, there were still a few people out here celebrating. the giants delivered and the fans are delirious. >> woo! >> reporter: game 1, giants! >> giants! i'd be surprised if it goes to
1:42 am
five games. >> reporter: fireworks and a flyover started the party. from home made masks to tripped- out bikes. indescribable. >> i went to get the best suit that i thought would represent the giants. i think i found it. >> is that specially made, or you found it off the rack? >> shockingly, i found it off the rock, and it was on sale. >> reporter: there were a lot of things for sale that only a rabid fan could appreciate. and it wasn't hard to spot the scalpers, where the price for two tickets is what you're willing to pay. >> i have to see the market first. >> what's the market? >> reporter: there are other ways to see the game without a ticket. >> over here by the right field gates, these are not the cheap seats. these are the free seats.
1:43 am
125 fans. every three innings. he drove up yesterday to get in line for his spot. >> i waited around since about 12:45 last night, sleeping in my car. >> reporter: some find for creative ways to see the action on the field. and giants home runs are just as fun for fans outside the park. >> yeah, giants, baby! >> reporter: even fans that didn't have tickets were out here all night long, dressed in their orange and black. dana, they just needed to soak in that world series victory. >> they get to do it again tomorrow. when the giants won the world series back in 2010, gavin newsome was mayor of san francisco. on nights like this, he tells us that he really misses the job. >> you get those fancy seats and then all of a sudden you know where you stand based on how far back you are in the stands. i'm somewhere mid to upper
1:44 am
deck, with the real folks. >> yeah. newsome says his three-year-old daughter is good luck. every play-off game they've attended, the giants have won. except tonight his daughter is in southern california. mayor edwin lee and detroit mayor david binge have agreed on their world series bets. a little late but they got it in. the winner will visit the other city and do a little community service. there you go. a middle schoolteacher is under arrest, suspected of selling drugs. police found a pound of pot and 4200 in his car, in the school's parking lot. 66-year-old allen goodman is a teacher at hercules middle school. officers searched his walnut creek home and say they found evidence of a marijuana grow and a large amount of cash. another bay area teacher is having problems, not with drugs but with books. the school district won't let her use certain books in class. so cbs 5 reporter shows us she
1:45 am
has come up with a plan b. >> every day, doing what i do best. >> reporter: it's a powerful pulitzer-prize winning play. but students will not be allowed to learn about it in a classroom. angels in america is a behind- the-scenes story about the reagan determination to reject federal research funding for aids. it has been rejected by the school board. >> there is deep-rooted homophobia behind this decision. >> reporter: every year, since 2008, the board has banned the play, along with another book dealing with incest. >> many of the board members did not want their own children exposed to this. so they're projecting their own small-minded concerns onto the children of everyone. >> reporter: board member laura york disagreed with that decision. >> the majority of the board had decided that the material in the book and the play were too mature for our 17 and 18-
1:46 am
year-olds. >> reporter: because they're still available in the library, the school district insists the books are not banned. teacher hu strongly disagrees with that assessment. >> i say it's banned if they did not allow reasonable teaching of it in a classroom setting. >> reporter: the unitarian universalist church has hired the teacher to teach it in the classes. this book club hopes they'll eventually show up to learn material their school district has decided is just too controversial. in fremont, cbs 5. bank of america was just hit with a billion-dollar lawsuit for alleged mortgage fraud. they keuzed mortgage officers of approving thousands of mortgages, knowing the home buyers couldn't afford them. those loans were then sold to investors, backed by the federal government. they denied the charges, saying
1:47 am
we can't compensate every entity claiming losses actually caused by the economic downtowrn. los angeles police are searching for a california man accused of a million-dollar heist at a casino. but there is a catch on what the thief didn't know that makes the stolen loot worthless. >> reporter: these surveillance pictures allegedly show the thief as he walked through the venetian casino and snuck into a closed-off area usually reserved for high rollers. >> he managed to pry open the lock on the chip container. >> reporter: the man vanished with his $1.6 million haul, because at that early hour, 6 a.m. on october 10, no one was using the room. police say the suspect is 31- year-old akingide cole, who has a mohawk-style haircut and a large growth on his left ear. he's from palmdale, california. >> he's been looking for work for months, and he hasn't been successful with it.
1:48 am
>> even though people get away with some of this stuff sometimes initially, it's very difficult to take it through to conclusion. >> reporter: it's the most recent in a string of attempts to chip away at house money. michael belltan was one of two men who pepper sprayed a dealer and stole a million dollars in chip. he apologized in court and got two to five years in prison. and in 2010, anthony carleo ran off with chips worth 1.5 million. this video caught him dashing through the casino. the catch here is that authorities say in these cases, the thieves likely can't even cash in. the chips can only be redeemed at the casino from where they were stolen. anywhere else, they're worthless. >> it's one of the dumbest crimes you can possibly make. >> reporter: once again, the

[ squeaking ] yay! [ female announcer ] introducing smooth sensations cream cheese spread from the laughing cow. tonight, for every mother-t: get vaccinated against whoog cough. new advice tonight for every mother-to-be- get vaccinated against whooping cough. an advisory panel now recommends that all pregnant women get the shot in their second or third trimester, even
1:52 am
if they've had it before. and doctors say they should get vaccinated again the next time they're expecting. the thinking is that the mother will transfer the disease- fighting antibodies to the fetus. >> to watch your children suffer is the most devastating experience, and i don't wish that for anybody. >> this year is the worst year for whooping cough since 1959. and a growing number of parents are not vaccinating their children. there have been more than 32,000 cases nationwide, 16 of them fatal. next time you visit the doctor, you may want to ask for an itemized bill. just don't ask the doctor, because that might cost you extra. cbs 5 reporter julie watts on the airline-style fees that more and more doctors are tacking on. >> because i can't figure out what this is. >> reporter: medical bills can be pretty confusing, so it's not surprising suzanne couldn't

1:54 am
in a prescription and, yes, asking questions. >> my doctor says, what questions do you have? and i had a little list and i just said, this one, this one, this one. >> reporter: but it turns out asking questions can also be your best defense against surprising fees, if you ask them in advance. when making your appointment, ask, how much will it cost me, and are there extra fees? >> i would never have known had i not taken the time to call. >> reporter: there's no law require that a medical office disclose fees up-front, but your doctor should be willing to ask questions like, will i be charged for asking questions? and keep in mind, many of these new fees are not covered by insurance. julie watts, cbs 5. halloween just a week away, and kids all over the bay area will be hitting the streets for the little bag of treats. cbs 5 reporter elizabeth cook shows us, there is a new way for parents to keep tabs on
1:55 am
their little monsters. >> reporter: exactly seven days till halloween and kids like gabriel want to have the perfect costume. his mom wants to make sure he's more equipped to handle the tricks than the treats. >> don't be out too late. usually early, like give him a time to come home, and don't talk to people he doesn't know. >> reporter: but when it comes to knowing the area's history of crime, she admits she needs a little help. >> we're not home a lot, so we don't know all the neighbors. >> reporter: enter alert id, an online service that alerts members of dangers in the area, everything from crime trends and natural disasters to helping find missing kids. it was developed by kelly wilson, after she almost lost her three children at great america. >> i thought, after this happened, how can i help other families with lost and missing children? >> reporter: alert id is free and supported by local law enforcement. all you have to do is enter your address and the network will show you who and what is
1:56 am
in your neighborhood. >> sex offenders, earthquake alerts. >> reporter: it also has a feature called family wallet, that allows you to send pictures of your kids to police if they go missing. it even helps you fight crime. >> if you see something suspicious, you post it, and it goes out to all the neighborhood. >> reporter: even though she trusts gabriel to be safe, it's nice to know something else has her back. no clouds in the way, so panda's ball sails right through the air. >> thank the weather for that low humidity. the weather was perfect for hitting, thankfully by our team, not their team. so we're talking about the boys of summer. it's going to be 80 this week. why not start the weather cast with snow? alpine meadows, 40 inches of new snow. we're looking at some video

2:04 am
pablo sandoval read every chapter of that book. verlander's invincibleness lasted all of two batters. setting a new san francisco giants' record. barry zito, rock solid, threw three with a little help from his friends. meanwhile, the balls just keep bouncing the giants' way. angel pagan's ground ball hits the third base bag, so instead of a third out, he's on second base with a double. of course, marco scutaro would follow that. it's too hot to handle for austin jackson. the giants lead 2-0. now, remember that sandoval guy? oops. he did it again. this time to left field. 4-0, san francisco. verlander was done after giving up five runs in four innings plus. top of the fourth, young gets a

2:06 am
unbelievable world series nights that they'll be talking about for years. >> for me, i just go in there, don't think too much, talk too much. >> i never played with anybody that can hit bad balls like he can with the authority he can. i don't think there's many that have ever played that can hit the ball as hard as he does. >> kind of go out there with that arrogance, just i'm getting my outs and it's a simple a mind-set as you can have. >> reporter: two and a third scoreless innings. now, everybody is on the bandwagon. jim harbaugh, he grew up in michigan. he was a tigers fan. he goes to chicago, becomes a cubs fan. now harbaugh is a giants' fan. here's what he said. >> we lived in 12 different places, 12 different towns, by the time i was 21 years old.
